Documentation
Download the technical chart Download the security chartNanovia PA-6 allows for mechanical pieces that need to be shock, impact, as well as heat resistant.
PA-6, also known as nylon, is widley used in the automobile industry. It’s also used for functional prototypes, hinges, and even cogs.
Advantages:
- Heat resistant
- Chemical resistant
Application recommendations
Storage
- Store Nanovia PA-6 in a dry and dark location, if possible with a desiccant.
- In order to guarantee good printing conditions dehydrate Nanovia PA-6 at 60 °C for 4 hours or longer, when the spools has been exposed to moisture for an extended period.
Printing
- Extrusion temperature : between 240 and 260 °C
- Heated bed temperature : between 80 and 110 °C
- Enclosure temperature : 90 °C
Health and safety
Printing
- We recommend printing Nanovia PA-6 in a room equipped with air extraction or by using appropriate breathing equipment.
Post treatment
- Standard safety equipment during the post treatment of your prints made with Nanovia PA-6 is recommended.
Packaging
Spools are packed in individual boxes, sous-vide with desiccant. Spools are equipped with both a material traciblity and a production series number.
Other sizes available up to 25kg on demand.
